You’ve read the behind the scenes creation experience (Iron Fusion – The Inside Story) and seen them in action, now the long awaited Kojiro, Musashi, Ume and Matsu are available from the PlayStation®Home store!

Become an impressive Samurai Bot or graceful Geisha Bot – each priced at $3.99 / €3.99 / £3.19 and comes with a custom walk, run and two special animations.

On 17th March 2011 the first Iron Fusion content arrived on the PlayStation®Home scene. Menace, Fractal and Rosko joined the Lockwood family as our very first Full Body Suits with custom animations. The success of this first generation of Mechs and the proof of concept drove the team to push the boundaries of what was possible with the PlayStation®Home Avatar.

After some experimentation the Mechjets were born, complete with female counterparts – a popular request!

Almost a year since the collection first launched the Samurai and Geisha bots join us in Playstation®Home. Read on to get the inside scoop on production of these exciting new outfits, with comments from the Artist behind Iron Fusion, Phil, and Marion, the Animator who brought the Samurai and Geisha Bots to life.

The Slice range comes in three colours that mix and match well with each other too. Align and combine, then slice it up and start again!

Available from the Lockwood Store in PlayStation®Home now. Continue reading →
